I’ve been in the trade a long time, this is the easiest to understand explanation I have seen. Well done
-
I am a new Electrical Apprentice and this is very easy to understand, Thank you.

15years ago my TAFE lecture did not explain it like this at all. Such a shame this part of an apprentice the lecture brushed over this swiftly. Your explanation shows how important it is and all under 30mins which was also very clear and precise. Thanks 🙏

Thank you so much for all these videos mate they are invaluable!
-
very clear explanation . easy and simple to undersand . thanks mate
-
This video helped me a lot today, thanks a lot mate - appreciate the effort!

Thank you. Very easy to understand info. But i have a further question. In an off grid system (solar with lightning protection+inverter+generator) where does this link go? Do they all run to the same earth? Is there a way to separate the earths so that lightning or static electricity does not upset the rcd function? Is that even an issue? There is a real lack of info on this subject. Maybe im just looking in the wrong place?

You would only have the earth to neutral link attached on your main board though. Not on any sub boards. correct?
-
I'm doing a generator connection to my house, and as I'm sure you know the neutral now also goes through the changeover switch (been a few years since I've done one). The question is, do I need a earth-neutral connection at the generator inlet as I'll obviously be losing the men connection when switched over to the generator?

Thank you So much Sir .
-
very handy video thanks! Would be great if you could use a chopstick or something instead of the ruler though because sometimes it's not clear what your pointing to

During earth fault condition if nuetral is connected to earthing bar would the current not be of shock harzad
-
thanks alot

Nice
-
Should the MEN link be thick, least resistance or thinner making a higher resistance? I'm thinking thicker so the current can pass through quicker and the resistance of the other metals in the housing will allow for that 5 or 10 ms delay. Am I correct?
-
if the MEN Link is missing is it a serious problem
-
does the MEN link take the risk of Earth leakage away or lowers it?
-
The MEN (Multiple Earthed Neutral)
-
Why is it “multiple” why can you only have one
-
MEN= Multiple Earthed Neutral. Refer AS3000/2007 clause 1.4.66
